Abstract
Some of the evidence regarding stuttering is presented in a review of the literature, and the author''s own clinical experience is given as substantiating the hypothesis that stuttering is a symptom of the deeper complex dysphemia, which is in turn an atavistically behaving pathological state of the organism resulting from various causes[long dash]genetic, parturitional, trauma, febrile conditions, etc. Failure to develop cerebral dominance and consequent ambi-laterality is the central focus. Correction depends on ma-terials and technics in the following areas: neurologic, physiologic, sociologic, psychologic, physical and vocational.This publication has 19 references indexed in Scilit:
